20 May 2020 - 03 June 2020
Defra has paused its consultation on proposals and ideas for its Environmental Land Management scheme (ELMs) which will usher in a new approach of public money paying for public goods, such as nature recovery and natural flood management. Now is an ideal time to reflect on the consultation and a wide range of stakeholder views.
The Natural Capital Committee have warned that a “carbon only” approach to nature-based solutions to deliver net zero risks undermining potential to deliver far wider benefit. ELMs can deliver for both decarbonization and a wide range of additional goods.
Hear from government and its advisors, the agriculture sector, academics, policy and conservation NGOs about their priorities for delivering nature based solutions through ELMs in this free 3-part webinar series.
This event is now full and registrations are closed. A recording of Part 1 is available below and future recordings of the sessions will be made available on this page if we have obtained the speakers' permissions to do so.
If you have registered previously for the event, you will have received an email with joining instructions. If you have any questions, please contact our team at events@ciwem.org.
